charity walks
Philanthropic hiking events
Charity walks are organized walking events where participants raise money for a cause, typically by collecting pledges from sponsors based on distance completed or a flat donation.
They combine physical activity with fundraising, often commemorating loved ones or raising awareness: She's doing a charity walk for breast cancer research.
Unlike races, the emphasis is on participation rather than competition.
